We begin our thoughts with the conception
                that
            GOD IS DEAD.

            GOD IS DEAD.

"The underground press serves as the only
effective counter to a growing power, and
more sophisticated techniques used by est
ablishment mass media to falsify, misrepr
esent, misquote, rule out of consideratio
n as a priori ridiculous, or simply ignor
e and blot out of existence: data, books,
discoveries that they consider prejudicia
l to establishment interest..."
- William S. Burroughs, author (censored

                  The presence of these w
eapons is certainly a concern for us: the
'real' reasons for the atomic bombs on JA
PAN where that RUSSIAN  troops  were  les
s than a week or two away from entering &
occupying JAPAN & the US wanted JAPAN for
themselves.

"And today's generation - growing up in a
mess of a world created for them by the b
aby-boom generation, often has little res
pect for political authority.  They do no
t trust - and often rightly so - politica
l leaders, and bear a cynicism previously
unseen in this country and around the wor
ld.  How can they have any respect for go
vernments trying to control the flow of i
nformation about bombs on the Internet, w
hen those same governments are responsibl
e the sale of arms and the subsidization
of arms industries worldwide, resulting i
n the death and destruction of countless
innocent people worldwide?"
- Jim Carroll, 1997.
